Most Popular Hopkins for 2015 Jeep Patriot

Stopped working and when it did it wasn't that accurate. Now it just doesn't work at all. The beeper is not that loud when it is in the panel of the hatchback.

Installed on 2015 Kia Sorento. My particular installation was simple . I new it would be , that is why I chose this product. My backup lights are located on the back door hatch. Removed three small opening covers and exposed the opening to the light wiring and gained access to " fish wire and connector through, without removing paneling. Connections were literally a "snap". All was achieved within the back door panel. The unit seems to work fine but is lacking corner activation, which is to be expected with only two sensors. My particular application will not sense a small dog even when sensors are pitched lowest possible.( high licence plate). Had to disconnect and reconnect connector with white alignment dots numerous times before unit worked properly. Overall, I would say it functions very well . It is very adequate for my needs and at a reasonable price. I Couldn't give it 5 stars because of the connector problem. How it does in the future. only time will tell .

I love it! Purchased 2. 1 for my wife and the other for me. I have only had it installed for a week and a half on our cars and am seriously thinking about getting 1 all family members. First handed I have noticed that deer are alerted when I am near. I have also noticed that dogs are alerted and raccoons also. This does not work well for geese. This works great on alerting people also. Gets their attention. I decided to use a wireless pushbutton on off switch to a relay for mine. Saves time in trying to find a way through the firewall. The hardest part in wiring was trying to find a circuit that turns off when the car is off.

So far all is good with this deer alert. Installed on my SUV vehicle and I cannot hear it while driving and tunes are playing. (I installed LED indicator light so that I know the alert is on). I have used a competitor's deer alert on my motorcycles (2002 on, after hitting deer and the last 6 years on my Mazda MX-5) after hitting a deer on my brand new motorcycle in 2002. I have found that the alert is very effective after meeting up with many deer/elk/moose in my travels over the last two decades.. Things, I like about the Hopkins Trailblazer Deer Alert vs. competitor's alert: Louder- "Chirpy noise" that I think will be even more effective in alerting animals./ Easily installed behind grill ( at least in my SUV) / Appears to be weather proof so no worries about carwashes / Approx. 25% of the cost of competitor's alert. Tip: I purchased a wireless switch else where and wired into circuit to activate the Alert saving me much time on installation as there was no need to run wires into the cabin for switch as per instructions. Highly recommend as this was a $10 addition. Giving this alert a 4 of 5 rating, only because it is new (one week after installation) and I have yet to encounter any deer/moose/elk in my travels. I will update on my experiences as I do put faith in these devices - perhaps no "bullet-proof", but certainly effective.
